Patent CA-2838978-A1 (CA)
Inventor: BANDOH YUKIHIRO
IPC: H04N19/136
Filed: 2012-06-12
Abstract: This video encoding device is provided with: a means which partitions a frame into regions, performs motion-compensated inter-frame prediction corresponding to fractional pixel accuracy by using a region-based adaptive interpolation filter which adaptively sets the interpolation filter coefficients for each partitioned region, and, when selecting the optimal partition position from candidate partition positions prepared in advance, constructs a system of linear equations for finding the interpolation filter coefficients corresponding to the partition regions defined by the partition position; and a means which calculates the interpolation filter coefficients by solving the system of linear equations. In an operation for finding the interpolation filter coefficients in different partition regions, the means for generating equations uses overlapping operation processing results, and performs calculations by means of new operations only for the difference information with no overlap.

Inventor: GRIMARD NICOLAS
IPC: G01B21/20
Filed: 2014-05-01
Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a method and an apparatus for scanning a test object. A reference object is scanned to build a gain correction map including gain values for scanning points on a surface of the reference object. The test object is also scanned to obtain measurements for scanning points on a surface of the test object. Amplitudes of the measurements obtained for the scanning points on the surface of the test object are normalized using the gain values of the gain correction map. The apparatus has a probe mounted on a mechanical scanner, and a controller controlling the scanning and normalizing operations. The method and apparatus can be used to create an image of the test object for non- destructive testing.

Title: Self-closing stall for an animal
Inventor: LOOS KEVIN
IPC: A01K1/00
Filed: 2014-08-06
Abstract: A feeding stall for an animal that allows a gestating sow or other animal to enter the stall for feeding, in which movement of the sow triggers automatic closure of a gate assembly, without manual intervention from the farmer. This protects the sow from other sows when it is feeding. When the sow has finished feeding, it can readily exit the stall, opening the entrance gate without manual intervention. Opening and closing of the gate is actuated when the sow urges the gate assembly open or closed. The sow need provide only an initial impulse against the gate, with the remainder of the rotation being provided by a biasing member which urges the gate into the fully open or closed position after being tilted past a neutral position.

Patent CA-2873212-A1 (CA)
Inventor: GONZALEZ JULIO
IPC: H04M3/54
Filed: 2013-06-17
Abstract: A method for routing calls between a third party telecommunications device ("TD") and a subscriber TD associated with a primary service and a second line service ("SLS") involves associating the SLS number of the subscriber, the primary number of the subscriber and the primary number of a third party via a common relationship number. Calls directed from a third party to the SLS number of a subscriber are routed to an SLS platform and redirected to the subscriber TD. Calls directed from the subscriber TD to the third party use the relationship number to route the call to the SLS platform. The combination of the SLS number and the relationship number identifies the third party calling number for call completion. Calls can be directed to and from an SLS number of a subscriber TD without having to coordinate the provisioning of a call through the subscriber's primary service provider.

Abstract: ABSTRACT This application relates to fibre optic sensing which can provide information about the environment in which the fibre optic is deployed, in particular the mechanical impedance. An interrogator is used to interrogate an optical fibre which is coupled to a first element which is responsive to electromagnetic fields. In use a varying, e.g. alternating, electric current, is applied so as to induce a varying force on said first element. The optical radiation backscattered from within the optical fibre is analysed to determine a variation corresponding with said electric current applied. The first element may be a first conductor and the varying current may be supplied to the first conductor, or to a second conductor.  Alternatively the first element could be a magnetic element. By applying a variable force to the first element, and hence the optical fibre, the characteristics of the environment can be determined. Date Recue/Date Received 2020-07-31
